M Fenders

Hongruntong Marine supplies high-quality M-Type (M-Shape) rubber fenders. Discover the benefits, technical specs, and applications of our durable M fenders for optimal dock and vessel protection.

M Type Fenders are robust, high-performance rubber fenders specifically designed for tugboats, especially for bow and stern applications. Their triple-leg profile provides superior grip and stability, making them ideal for withstanding high compression forces during ship-assist, pushing, and towing operations. The open legs of the fender ensure secure bolting and easy installation on curved surfaces.

Key Features & Benefits

• Optimized M-Shape Profile: The distinct M-Shape design ensures a large contact area and progressive deflection, leading to efficient energy absorption and low reaction force on vessel hulls.

• Exceptional Durability: Fabricated from advanced rubber compounds, our M fenders exhibit high resistance to abrasion, impact, ozone, UV exposure, and saltwater corrosion, significantly extending service life.

• High Energy Absorption: The structural efficiency of the M-Shape rubber fender maximizes energy dissipation per unit, offering effective cushioning for medium to high-energy berthing impacts.

• Ease of Installation & Low Maintenance: Hongruntong Marine's M-Type rubber fenders are designed for straightforward installation with standard fixtures, requiring minimal ongoing maintenance, which reduces total cost of ownership.

Applications

• Port and terminal quay protection

• Tugboats, pilot boats and work vessels
